Case Study: &Open speeds up monthly close and vendor payments with Spendesk

&Open, Dublin-based gifting solution, redefined corporate spend with Spendesk

&Open, a Dublin-based B2B business gifting platform operating globally, needed a modern spend management solution to replace disparate systems, manual month-end processes, and time spent chasing receipts. The finance team also wanted a better way to handle employee expenses, vendor payments, travel, and other company spend while supporting a growing business. Spendesk was the product they chose.

With Spendesk, &Open streamlined spend management using virtual cards, automatic receipt capture, approvals, and a native Xero integration. The result was faster vendor payments, fewer delays, and a much smoother close process: monthly close is now about 5 times faster, with the team spending only about an hour reviewing transactions. Spendesk also eliminated much of the manual admin around receipts and helped &Open scale efficiently without adding headcount.
